Business leaders say more testing is needed before reopening.

Wall Street Journal:

 

Banking and financial services executives told President Trump that his administration needed to dramatically increase the availability of coronavirus testing before the public would be confident enough to return to work, eat at restaurants or shop in retail establishments, according to people familiar with the matter.

 

And from the New York Times:

 

Flawed tests, scarce supplies and limited access to screening have hurt the U.S.’s ability to monitor Covid-19, governors and health officials warn.

 

And that's just in today's news.

 

Leadership matters.

But...but...the Orange Orangutan says the lack of available test kits not only isn't his fault, it's not his responsibility!

 

Perhaps those business leaders could get through to Trump by pointing out that if infection and death rates rise because people listen to his "open the country" twaddle, thatvcould hurt his reelection chances. Remember, that's all he cares about.
